Thanks. I think I said, "Excuse me? Can I just get out?" or something like that, but I felt bad making them get up to let me out. If I ever have a flight that long again, I think I'll get an aisle seat, even though I like the window.
Once I was on an overnight flight and I was sitting in an aisle seat. I kept nodding off and leaning toward the aisle. People walking past would bump my head. This happened many times and I almost chucked a mental.
So for sleeping, a window seat is best. The worst is the middle seat!

I guess I am lucky in that I can sleep on planes then.   Well really bad turbulence wakes me up.
:P   Internets are super serious.

I can never sleep on a plane, either. I am extremely sensitive to the most minute pressure changes and planes are torture. I can deal with it, but it is exhausting.
It took me months to learn to sleep on a band bus, too.

Agreed, I'v tried everything, but, there's just too much noise and I can't get into a position to relax enough to do so.

I went to Spain on a business trip once and seriously investigated the possibility of taking the train instead of flying. Turned out that the rail width differences between France and Spain caused all kinds of problems that basically meant that I'd have to travel for about two days or so. My boss refused.

I flew in business class instead and drank as much beer as they would give me. I hate flying.

;D I'll have to find some other kind of transportation--they've closed down the ferries. I would love to get a taste of your... cooking, though.
